• Follow regulated quality procedures (ISO 13485).
• Will be trained on Pick & Place machines, 3D printers, and SMT equipment.
• Full, permanent right to work in the UK is required.
• A full driving licence and access to a car daily.

Your Responsibilities

• Production & Assembly: PCB population, soldering, and mechanical assembly of life‑saving medical devices.
• Testing & Maintenance: Carrying out fault‑finding, repair, and general workshop upkeep.
• Quality Assurance: Adhering to strict SOPs and internal work instructions to ensure 100% compliance within an ISO accredited environment.
• Growth Support: Assisting the engineering team with ad‑hoc prototype builds and validation activities.

Benefits

• Salary: £27,000 | £12.98/h (pro‑ratio)
• Hours: Monday – Thursday 7:45am – 6pm, 1 hour lunch, 37h (paid @ 40h/week)
• Time Off: 34 days holiday (pro‑ratio)
• Duration: Initially ~12 months, with conversion to full‑time permanent possible at any stage.
• Parking: On‑site car parking (free)
